TUSCALOOSA,
Alabama — One of the biggest names in Washington D.C. high school coaching is
coming to Alabama.

Abdul-Rahim, the coach of former Crimson Tide target Jalen Tabor, will join
Nick Saban's staff as a defensive coach, according to the Washington Post. The
paper reported he'd take a leave of absence from Friendship Collegiate Academy
for the unspecified position.

Abdul-Rahim gained a national reputation while
producing several 5-star recruits. His program was profiled by ESPN
and Sports
Illustrated when the 2012 class yielded 19 signed scholarships.

That group
included top defensive lineman Eddie Goldman, now a Florida State Seminole, but
was heavily recruited by Alabama.

Tabor,
one of the nation's top cornerbacks in the 2014 class, was expected to commit
to Alabama but initially pledged to Arizona. He later flipped and enrolled at
Florida this January.

The
2012 story on ESPN's Grantland site recalled Saban stopping by the Washington
D.C. school to "schmooze" Abdul-Rahim during the recruiting process.
